April 23rd: Celebrity

[rekuma]

it is now over 1,007,000... wow.

[plushalligator]

"we are catching up to youtube!" hank im from the future.YOU GUYS RULE YOUTUBE!!!

[WTBman2011]

Their first really populer video. :)

[cynthiayl12]

I turned 10 the day before this video :D

[2551241182]

i turned 12 the day this video came out

[vidkid42]

100,000 times... this video has over a million views.

[Totoronerdfighter]

Holey Freakin' Moley!

[vashtanerada123456]

the firs mention of giraffes who love giraffes. this is a video which deserves over 1 million views.

[XxHazardxXGaming]

first giraffe love :D

[OpenEarsOpenHeart]

Look at the "most popular in" map. What's with Saudi Arabia? They must just love giraffes that love giraffes.

[fabiobean11]

i find it a bit strange that this video is most viewed by middle aged males

[cheerleadernation92]

I like the fact that he's amazed that the brotherhood 2.0 had received a total of 100, 000 views, while this video alone now has over one million.

[MissLauraC213]

The first mention of Girraffe Sex. On my birthday. FTW.

[PsychoKiller888]

I am a vlogbrothers fan, but i have to say this video only go so many views because of the word celebrity in the title, shows how much the world is focused on bullshit not real problems

[TheMinuteVlog]

One million.

[xzaggygx]

as of me there re 1,002,595

[iflipped4u]

As of me watching this there are 1,000,005 views! A million! Highest Vlogbrother video view total during my viewing of all the videos in order so far!

[heyitsrissa]

I just want to point out that when I am now watching this in 2011, there are 998952 views. So almost 100000, which was the total at the time....

[DotDotDotDotDot]

@heyitsrissa You're missing a zero there... it's really ten times the total at the time. :)

[dancingintherain237]

What video is the first one where Hank mentions nerdfighters? I found the one where John does but what about Hank? Anyone a vlogbrothers trivia wizard?

[dannerzme]

I thought the giraffes' necks were the hind legs of a cat jumping of a counter or something when I saw the video preview link. Boy was I wrong! lol!

[TealAlways]

Your eyes look different colors...

[mashcorps]

him freaking out about 100,000 views is hilarious in todays youtube revolution

[cynthiayl12]

this was the day after my birthday. ha.

[jvinson4]

FINALLY! Someone else that has Helen Hunt on their "free pass list"! My gf laughed at me and said "That's the best you can do?" (I take so many issues with that comment.)

[RawritsRIA]

i just calculated how much money you'd owe all the nerdfighters/other people who have contributed to the 986,948 views this video currently has. If we were being paid 8.25 (which is how much i earn at Jewel, cutting fruit) per hour, you would owe us $472,514 dollars and approximately 61 cents. AMAZING right?

[Tammy00121]

216 COMMENTS!?!? Well... now it's 217... BUT STILL!

[GildedWildebeest]

Ew, check the stats to see video referrals =/

[webmaster8040]

100,000 views... and this one has almost a million. lol people are pervs

[littleLdot]

"There are a lot of people watching me talk to you. And that's weird." :) Oh if you only knew :)

[TheRickyman23]

This was posted... ON MY BIRTHDAY???

[TookItHomeToJenny]

I love that you are so happy about 100,000 views in comparison to the near 1,000,000 of this video alone!!!

[ArpTubes]

Instead of being viewed mostly by teenage girls, this video has been viewed mostly by 45-54-year-old men. And it's most popular in Saudi Arabia.

What giraffe sex does to a Vlogbrothers video... O_o

[parisdagreatislost]

@ArpTubes I'm a teenage girl who lives in Saudi Arabia and I found that hilarious and slightly disturbing. Is it true, though?

[ArpTubes]

@parisdagreatislost Yes, look at the stats - the icon is next to the view count. It's true for every vlogbrothers giraffe video.

[viva0la0life]

@Lerax429 What's the point in commenting in eEnglish if 5.8 billion people don't know how to speak it? I can count that as most people in the world. Nerdfighteria is international!!! Why must we be racist of ones language.

Anyways, there's Google translate.

[squishy300]

My goodness, he looks like my algebra teacher O_O

[minimoon314]

I love that you can pause one of Hank's videos at any given moment and he always has a hilarious expression! :D

[DoGeeseSeeGod24]

In this video Hank talks about having 100,000 viewers on ALL of the videos up to this point. This video almost has 100,000 viewers by itself. And it's all because he randomly inserted that giraffe sex bit in the middle.

[DoGeeseSeeGod24]

@DoGeeseSeeGod24 Sorry. I meant 1,000,000. Yes, it's even more insane. A power of ten more insane actually.

[roma197139]

ага все сюда только и заходят чтоб на картинку в превью пофапать

[Ravenclaw797]

and now helen hunt has seen your helen hunt song. :D

[SyreenInSapphire]

WOW, this video alone is 9 times more viewed than the amount of views all vlogbrothers videos had at the time.

[WaterLily331]

100,000 times? Gasp. Who could imagine.

[MichaelHowrie]

Wow! Back in the past, you kindof looked like LiamKyleSullivan :D

[LifeMustard]

Did I hear a Gmail IM sound at 2:54?

[KidCoda]

"Although I guess maybe Helen Hunt..." :)

[Lauraa4023]

Lol

[pixiedust4182]

Hank, you are ABSOLUTELY on my free pass list.

[DFultrabeatdown34]

i swear the early vids had 40k views and this has 1mill? waooooo

[ifeelrelaxed]

"except maybe Hellen Hunt.." ha!

[pockets1230]

you're on my free pass list, hank! =D

[shannonheart1]

Helen Hunt, Helen Hunt, you make my heart do acrobatic stunts...<3

[awsomenaruto94]

definitely on the list

[RomeoSOF2]

I'm searching for videos that happened on april 23rd, my b-day xD

[SamaLovesGuess]

Man, Katherine is so lucky. I wish I could find a person with a character uncannily like Hank's to be with me so that I wouldn't need a "free pass" ;D

[BisforBrilliance1]

2:48

OMG DO YOU HAVE TWO DIFFERENT EYES? OWOVIEJOIFJEWOIJOI I HAVE NEVER NOTICED THIS WTFFFF? THATS AWESOME

oh wait, it's just the light...damn

[CaSCHWANK]

lol why is the picture so awkward ...?

[Intothemoooon]

LOL "Our videos have been watched 100,000 times!"

*looks at view count*

This video alone.... almost a million views now.....

[Cheratomo]

The related videos...

IT SCARES ME

HIDE

[Demauscian]

104,105 views came from Giraffe Sex Safari!

23,707 views came from Giraffe Soft Porn

25,899 views came from Zebra Lovin'

REALLY?!?!?!?!  you guys just just troll around, clicking on any video that looks like it is related to animal sex?

[Speilbilde]

What? No giraffe sex? I feel cheated. We all love giraffes who love giraffes...

[CopyOfMe]

Nooo, look at all the related videos! Nothing but animal sex (and Jessica Simpson) x'D

And one video with John as a thumbnail. I think I'll click that one.

[pienkunicorn]

Bowling! YEAH!

I do that a lot lately. And picking up a spare feels fantastic!

WTH why do ppl make weird lists like that? Really?

I dunno I love you both. Hank because he is was a Science major and he loves sci-fi and anime. But I tend to prefer John. There's just something in the way he expresses himself..

[greengirllover]

Giraffe sex!

[Gaugaukkistonnian]

I love how Hank is all amazed at a mere and total 100,000 views, and then this video, on it's own, has been viewed more than 900,000 times.

[barlin07]

I like comparing the demographics of this video to the one before it ^_^

[wildnose94]

Why is this video most popular in Saudi Arabia? O.o

[happyjiffy]

@wildnose94 I have no idea, but it's the same with all of the videos that have that thumbnail. It's pretty creepy.

[jpaisneto]

Oh, this video was posted on my birthday haha

[stormcloud847]

@jpaisneto mine too!

[artvandelay13]

lol, and now this video alone has over 900k views...

[LebnulKirec]

People who love giraffes who love giraffes... No! Must not get ahead of self...

[kim11ammons]

Why does this video have SO MANY MORE VIEWS than all their videos before it?

[theonetheonlythesam]

The answer is giraffe love.

[781228XX]

Helen Hunt, Helen Hunt,

you make my heart do acrobatic stunts

[Metrickster]

Giraffe sex? Weird...

[jts12141]

why does it take so much time to make a video?

[pseudocaveman]

And so begins the giraffe love.

[pythonfan001]

i take that picture as payback for all the time ive spent on here

[FIGOMAN11]

The video that started it all.

[whalesforhamsters]

You look like my ex.

[dancinerd]

hank says: let me go get my calculator

john says: let me go get my daniel biss.

what's wrong with this picture here???? (i wonder who's taking advantage of the human mind???)

[iceteabeingstirred]

Ok, Hank, I don't want to freak you out, but I just did some calculations of my own, and worked out how many views your videos have had from January 1st-December 31st.

Ready?

11,272,919 views.

[lorenlovestherejects]

hahaah i love Hanks's talke about the free pass list. I was dying laughing. He's so amazing !

[robotgroove]

in the back "westside"

looks like westicle

[DudeWheresMyMind]

Two hours? wow.

[iaMyla]

Srsly 730,415 views :O thats a lot...

I guess giraffe sex is something people really like to watch videos about...

Eew...

[abbaisprettysweeet]

helen hunt, helen hunt, she makes my heart do acrobatic stunts!

[roxanney4]

haha "our videos have been watched over 100,000 times! that's alot!" this video alone has been watched over 700,000 times xD

[ams161988]

On the giraffe note, I was at the zoo over the weekend and giraffe's were getting friendly. On the blog note, i love the blogging

[jasmineleyro]

"holy fricken moley!"

it's hilarious to know that people only watch this because they think it may have something to do with giraffe...love.

[prancingflamingo]

the origins of people who love giraffes who love giraffes!

[ztoigo]

how the hell did this vid get to 640,000 views?!?!?!

[DusmarFilms]

giraffe sex

[punkslilncs]

cause some people are odd as hell and wanted to see giraffe sex?

[senorsqueakydesk]

That's great that you are talking about all your videos being viewed over 100,000 times and this video now has 677,000 views thanks your your giraffe sex centershot.

[savage6851]

why are the nerdfighter videos ads all about gays and coming out??? :(

[wonwonwova]

also fat ads and barack obama

[valerie2776]

"Here we are at the Westview Fun Game Place...that's not it...what's it called? Westway Fun Center.. Westside......a fun place in the west." Hehehe.

[maivresnon]

senın sakallarını sikim ipne!

[vampgirl95]

"now I know we're not the biggest video project out there."

erm... now you are. :)

[valerie2776]

The comment to view ratio on this boggles the mind.

[cookie4monster4]

I know! I'm always amazed that there are only around 1-200 comments in their videos.

[AphoticSoliloquy]

Oh the facial expressions...Ohhh the joy they bring me. haha

[MarleeSunshine]

Oh my God, remind me not to watch this video when I have bronchitis again.

Holy crap, I laughed for a good three minutes straight, then hacked up a lung.

[Thug4zim]

haha...dats funny

[Monkeynocure]

why does this one nerdfighter vid have so many views compared to the other vids?

[iambored71717]

People love Giraffes who Love Giraffes (the screen shot)

[cookie4monster4]

I think it has to do with the word "celebrity" in the title. Because a lot of people search on youtube for things about celebrities, more people click on it. The video about the peeps has a lot of views too, because apparently people like searching for the word "peep"...

I love John and Hank and alll their videos deserve this many views.

[valerie2776]

Oh no, I think it's entirely because of the thumbnail of giraffe love.

[Gentilman123]

go hell

[sweetie1on1]

lame as hell thats all i got to say

[foctavaiano]

MAMÒN. DALE PUES

[jamba66]

haha, this is the video that everyone watches - because of the giraffe sex still shot. XD

[whitefluffyhat]

Wait, you guys had already been viewed a hundred thousand times by this video?

I may be wrong, but I think John recently said on BlogTV that none of your videos got a thousand views until Accio Deathly Hallows... Maybe I just misunderstood? It definitely seems like you would've had more views than that..

[duizendde]

... neeerrdddd

[thetrashtube]

that is OK, because nerds are made of awesome

[apostolicguy89]

and whoever is talking is cute. lose the glasses, update the wardrobe and hair...rawr lol

[thetrashtube]

[thenatiiscalling]

helen hunt ah hahahaahaha

[danxcountry17]

hank is a writer?

[thevampireking21]

He writes creative non-fiction. Mostly articles for magazines and websites.

[pardyanimal240]

[Nalaqueen4566]

[LeftyHandedGuns]

'Cause the non-nerdfighters thought the video was about giraffe sex.

And that...turns them on, I guess. :)

[Bluegamer09]

Roflmao!!!

[spongekiko59]

geek

[itsamountain]

I believe the correct term is "nerd".

[Nalaqueen4566]

I like geeks.

problem?

i thought not.

[Pfahg]

I prefer nerds.

But no problem.

:D

[jackeyramone]

when reffering to awesome people the term Nerd Is better than the term Geek! thanks!
